PROFESSIONAL EXPERIENCE:
Confidential, Aurora, IL
Reliability Engineer
Responsibilities:
- Analyzed failure stories and time - to-failure data for powertrain mechanisms (differentials, final drives, brakes, clutches, and etc.) of Underground Mining Machines, Large Wheel Loaders, Track-Type Tractors, Wheel Tractor Scrapers, by using the product field failures database.
- Determined B10 Life (the time by which 10% of the product population will get failed) for the above products by using Weibull Analysis and constructed the powertrains’ B10 Life roll-ups.
- Improved the Company Weibull computation algorithm by using F-test for regression equations.

Quality Assurance Engineer
Responsibilities:
- Involved in stock reassessment procedure with the use of Acceptable Quality Level (AQL) product, writing Product Inspection Reports (PIRs).
- Participated in problem resolution process in subcontractor facilities in Chicago area.
Confidential, Burr Ridge, IL
Reliability / Common Methods Engineer
Responsibilities:
- Developed Reliability Growth Plans for products like agricultural tractors and planters.
- Monitored and analyzed Reliability Growth Test data; reported and discussed them with a cross functional team. Determined life of consumable parts by using Weibull Analysis.
- Analyzed warranty data and performed New Content analysis for the above mentioned products.
- As a Problem Solving Tutor monitored, analyzed, and distributed information on failures occurred during field tests among designer groups and participated in Failure Analysis, FMEA meetings, and 8D problem resolution process.
Confidential, Itasca, IL
Quality / Reliability Engineer - Independent
Responsibilities:
- Processed data of circuit boards’ and final products’ qualification tests. Obtained statistically grounded conclusions about reliability of the tested products. Used Descriptive Statistics, Capability Analysis, Gage Repeatability and Reproducibility (GR&R) Study, One-way- / Two-way Analysis of Variance (ANOVA), Regression Analysis, and etc.
- Improved some computational procedures on the basis of Robust Statistics and special “quick” statistical methods. Participated in some R&D projects as a specialist on Statistics.
Confidential
Research / Reliability Engineer
Responsibilities:
- Tested physical and mechanical properties of materials (metals, plastics, thin- and thick-film resistors for electronics) after exposure them to various environmental and operational factors (temperature, humidity, mechanical or electrical loads, etc.). Used Advanced Statistics to process and interpret the test data.
- As a specialist on Advanced Statistics participated in projects on developing some new materials (thin- and thick-film resistors, an adhesive material) and their technologies. Conducted seminars on DOE and Advanced Statistics for the Company colleagues and students of Lvov University.
- Led a project on developing a new effective method for metallic materials creep rupture life prediction.
